Sometimes it’s hot in the office, I mean 90 degrees in here and I wish I had a single ear headset. Pick and choose based on your environment.

How To Record Telephone Calls with a Plantronics, Jabra Headsets
Many call centers and small businesses make it a practice to record all of the phone calls they receive. Whether it is for reviewing phone calls or training purposes, it is always useful to have a complete transcript of the conversation. Thankfully, Plantronics and Jabra make this an easy thing to do! Not only is it east, it is also FREE to record your phone conversations. That is right, FREE!!!
Plantronics (Plantronics Savi 700’s Series) and Jabra (9450, 9460, 9470, 6470) headset models offer a unique solution. These headsets connect to both your desk-phone and your computer. This makes it quite simple to record the audio from your desk-phone directly on your computer!
Plantronics Savi 8200 series (savi 8210, Savi 8220) are the newest Plantronics Wireless Headsets. It has the same functions as the Savi 700 series, plus it comes active noise blocking technology in the speakers. Design specifically for business with lots of office noise, so the user can focus on the phone call or task.
Plantronics Instructions: Connect the Plantronics Savi series headset to both your phone and your computer. In order to mix the audio, you simply hold down the computer and phone buttons at the same time until the indicator light shows that both are working. Then use 3rd party software (Such as Dynametric or the FREE software that comes on any PC or Mac) which enables you to record phone conversations. This will be able to mix the audio from the two devices to produce audio files of all the calls made from the phone!
Jabra Instructions: Connect headset to both devices per regular set-up. On your computer, open “Jabra Control Center” and select the tab for “Audio”. There is a box to select that reads “Forward desk phone call to PC for recording.” Once this box is checked, you are able to use 3rd Party Software to record! Jabra recommends “Windows Sound Recorder.”

Best Headsets Review for Avaya 1400 2400 4600 5600 9400 9500 Series Phones
If you have any of the following Avaya Phone models 1408, 1416, 2410, 2420, 4606, 4610, 4610SW, 4612, 4620, 4620SW, 4621, 4621SW, 4622SW, 4624, 4625SW, 4630, 4630SW, 5410, 5420, 5610, 5620, 5621, 5625, 6416D+M, 6424D+M, QE4610, 9404, 9406, 9408, 9504, 9508, 4406D+, 4412D+, 4424D+, 4424LD+. This guide will help you pick out which headset is right for you.
The first thing to figure out is whether or not you prefer having a wired headset to your desk phone, or a wireless headset. For wired options, the headset will plug directly into the desk phones’ ‘headset jack.’ To use the headset, you simply need to press the ‘headset button’ on the phone, then the headset will be activated and you can speak and listen through your corded headset.
Next you should consider your budget. Corded headsets are the cheapest option, ranging from $85 to $185+. Wireless headsets start in the $160 range, and rise from there depending on your wireless needs (wireless options below).
Lastly and just as important, consider your working environment and how you would prefer to wear your headset. If it is a noisier work area, having a Binaural (2 ears covered) headset would be needed. Most headsets these days already have a noise canceling microphone, and every headset (except for over the ear headsets) can come with 2 headphones. Headsets can also come with different wearing styles, the over the ear option I just mentioned, over the head via headband, or even behind the head with a neckband. Now I’ll get into some headset information to help you choose which is right for you:
Corded Headsets Options

With a leatherette ear cushion and it’s lightweight design, it is one of the most comfortable headsets to wear. It also features HD/Wideband Audio for a natural voice sound to the client.
Wireless Headsets Options
For wireless headsets, one major feature to consider is whether or not you want the ability to answer calls away from the desk phone. Most of the time the answer to this question is- YES.
The Wireless Headset System needs an EHS cable to complete this necessity:
Plantronics CS540+AVAYA EHS Headset System – $269.95
This is the most popular wireless headset, paired with said EHS cable. The headset comes with 2 wearing style options, an over the head-band, and an over the ear-hook. It is the most comfortable and lightest headset on the market, and includes all the features you would expect from a great headset: On-headset volume control, as well as additional volume control options underneath the charging cradle. With this bundle, you will have the ability to field calls anywhere within 350ft. of the desk phone.
Plantronics Savi 8220 +EHS Avaya J100 1400 1600 9400 9500 9600 .. $369 <== my pick
The Plantronics Savi 8220 is by far my favorite.

Top Headphone for watching Movies on a Tablet, PC or Laptop Review
All of these headsets listed below have one primary goal. Their goal is to achieve clear communication for the user and the customer. None of these headsets will provide you with ultimate audio experience you might find with pure audio headphones that cost $300 and up. These headsets provide you with excellent communication, and as a bonus decent to great audio quality for listening to music or watching movies. If you travel a lot, make a lot of phone calls, and enjoy listening to music, below are some headsets that might work for you. They all include a Bluetooth dongle so you can connect it to a computer as well as a cellphone / tablet.
Jabra EVOLVE 65 UC Stereo USB Bluetooth Headset
The Evolve 65 Stereo is a decent Bluetooth headset that will connect to a USB device and also a cellphone/tablet via Bluetooth. It has a nice noise canceling microphone and decent audio quality. You will get around 100 ft range (using dongle) more like 30 feet using cellphone and around 10 hours talk time. This headset wouldn’t be my first pick because the Evolve 75 is a much nicer headset for not much more money. Overall still a good headset. Click here to buy.
Jabra EVOLVE 75 UC Stereo Bluetooth USB Headset
Out of all of the headsets listed here, this would be my pick. Why you ask? Because I own a pair of these and I love them. Great noise canceling microphone, active noise canceling earphones, and Hi-Fi stereo quality. You can’t compare any of these headsets to audiophile type music headsets. But again, that is not what they are for. Their primary goal is clear communication with customers and they achieve this goal and go beyond. When you have free time in between calls, The Evolve 75 is great headset to just relax and jam out to music. You will have around 100ft wireless range (dongle) and 15 hours of battery life. This will connect to a computer via USB and a Bluetooth device. Click here to buy now.
Plantronics Voyager 6200 UC Bluetooth Headset (black), Skype Cer
Here we have an interesting headset. They’re not truly wireless earbuds like the air pods, but they are better than them anyway. They have omni directional noise canceling microphones that will help pick up your voice clearly. They have active noise canceling ear buds, and good audio quality, but most importantly, call clarity. They are certified for Microsoft Skype for Business Open Office. Great for the on the go user that needs to be mobile and not be burdened with a bigger headset. Also if you’re afraid of losing wireless ear buds (I am), get these. Click here to buy now.
Plantronics Voyager Focus UC Bluetooth Wireless, No Stand B825
The Voyager Focus UC is Plantronic’s version of the Jabra Evolve 75. They have the active noise canceling earphones, great noise canceling mic, and around 12 hours of listening time. This headset would be my second choice to the Evolve 75. Again, the audio quality is very good, but not comparable to some high end audio only headphones. If you enjoy watching movies, listening to music, and still need to make professional calls, this is another great headset to have. This headset is suprisingly light for what it accomplishes. Click here to buy now.
Plantronics Voyager 8200 UC Bluetooth Wireless Headset
Here we have more unusual type of headset. This is a circumaural type headset (goes over and surrounds the ears.) They have very nice audio quality, and 4 omni-directional noise canceling microphones. The odd part about this headset is that it doesn’t have a boom microphone like most over the head headsets have. Don’t fret, your customers will be able to hear you just fine. You have a tremendous 24 hours listening time with these! If you’re constantly in very loud environments and still want to hear your audio, buy these. Click here to buy now.
Plantronics Voyager 4220 UC Bluetooth Stereo USB Headset, Skype
This headset is similar to the Jabra Evolve 65 Stereo but better. You have a nice noise canceling microphone and good audio quality. But like the Evolve 65, you don’t have any active noise canceling through the earphones. You have the same 100ft range as the others above, 15 hours music listening time, and they are very comfortable. This headset is certified for Microsoft Skype for Business Open Office. I would spend a little bit more money to get the Evolve 75 or the Voyager Focus. Still overall a good headset though.
Click here to buy now.
Again, all of these headsets above are really great for phone calls, video chat, and conferences. They all have nice noise canceling microphones that you will not find on other audio headset or air pods. Out of all of these headsets, I like the Jabra Evolve 75 the best. The sound quality on top of the excellent call quality make them well worth the money. Considering how well these headsets do their job, their prices are well worth the money.
Plantronics Blackwire 7225
The Plantronics Blackwire 7225 is the first of the Active Noise Canceling corded headsets from Plantronics. Has a boomless microphone and offers a Hi Fi stereo sound quality for music.

Compatible Headsets for Polycom VVX IP phones
Polycom VVX series phones (VVX101, VVX201 VVX300, VVX310, VVX400, VVX410, VVX 150, VVX 250, VVX 350, VVX 450, VVX500, VVX600, VVX1500) are very confusing when it comes to finding compatible headsets. Different models have different headset options and built in ports, so may headsets are available on the Polycom headset page. sometimes people read it as Polycom WX.
Polycom VVX 101, VVX 201, VVX 300/301, VVX 310/311, VVX 400/401, VVX 410/411: These are the simplest of all the Polycom VVX models. There is only 1 x RJ9 Headset Jack, so the choices are simple. Both Plantronics and Jabra, you can use their standard QD headset + Polycom RJ9 adapter cable. Look at our Polycom headset page for all the compatible headsets. With Plantronics, there are only certain models that are Polycom compatible. Others Plantronics models it cause a “buzzing” sound in the headset. I recommend the pre-bundle Polycom models like the Plantronics HW510-POLY or the Plantronics HW710-POLY Headset . If you like wireless, check out Plantronics CS510-Polycom. If you’re in a noisy office, I highly recommend the Plantronics Saiv 8220 – Polycom. They all have been tested to work with all Polycom VVX phones.
Polycom VVX 250, VVX 350, VVX 450: These are the newest Polycom VVX phones. Equipped with 1 x RJ9 jack and USB ports. So you can use either the RJ9 port and USB port. I recommend headsets like Plantronics HW540-Poly or Plantronics HW510-Poly. If you want wireless, look at the Plantronics CS540-Polycom . All these headset have been tested and certified to work with Polycom VVX phones. If you’re on a small budget, you can also use something like the Jabra Biz 1500 mono USB headset for only $89. For a noisy, busy office, look at the Jabra Evolve 75 USB wireless headset. It has active noise canceling technology to block out unwanted noise in the office and it has the best sound quality of all the headsets we carry.
Polycom VVX 500/501: This Polycom phone is equipped with 1 x RJ9 jack and 2 x USB ports. So you can use either the RJ9 headsets mentioned above or the Plantronics HW540-POLY or a USB headset like Plantronics C710 USB Headset . Looking for something more affordable, look at the the Plantronics Blackwire C3215. Polycom VVX 500 does not support Bluetooth directly. So if you want to use a Bluetooth wireless headset, you will need Plantronics Voyager Legend UC Bluetooth Headset B235 , which includes a Bluetooth USB dongle that provide the Bluetooth wireless function.
Polycom VVX 600/601, VVX 1500: These Polycom phones has 1 x RJ9 headset jack, 2 x USB ports and it’s also Bluetooth enabled. So you can use all the headsets from the above models PLUS you can use any Bluetooth enable headset. I would recommend staying with the higher end Bluetooth headsets like the Jabra EVOLVE 65 UC Mono USB Bluetooth Headset or the Plantronics Voyager Focus UC Bluetooth Wireless. The only draw back with using Bluetooth is the roaming range, typically only 30ft. A few up to 100-300ft. If you want wireless and need greater range, I would use the Plantronics CS540 Wireless Headset with DECT 6.0 technology that provides 350ft wireless range.
For all the VVX phones, EHS (Electronic Hook Switch) remote answer cable is also available for EHS compatible wireless headsets. see our dedicated Polycom Headset page for more details or simply call one of our headset specialists at 877-999-3838.
